Last updated: February 25, 2026
WeGive Events lets organizations create ticketed or free events, manage registrations, collect payments, and track attendance — all within the WeGive platform.
What You Can Do with Events
Create events with one or more ticket types (paid or free)
Control who can register (public, approval required, or invite-only)
Collect custom information from registrants
Require waivers before registration completes
Check in attendees via QR code
Send confirmation and status-update emails automatically
Where to Find Events
Events live under Engagements > Events in the left navigation.
Before You Create an Event
Make sure the following are in place:
The organization has Events enabled on their account. If Events doesn't appear in the nav, contact support to enable it.
Payment processing is configured if the event will have paid tickets.
Any waiver templates or DocuSign envelopes are ready if waivers are required.
